Create and maintain the master table of all instrumentation and data devices.

Create specification for control power supplies, and coordinate with electrical Engineer.

Coordinate location of instrumentation with mechanical and electrical engineers; the electrical engineer is responsible for conduit and terminations.

Develop the Control Panel showing performance data in real time, including vehicle fueling (and EV Charging – optional) and facility operation (initiated from the control panel). Panel will display equipment operation status, power demand by equipment, flow rate, pressure, temperature…. and other output from instrumentation. The control panel will display fueling events with fuel delivered.

The Control Panel will receive data signals from field devices and provide control power to devices requiring control power. Relays in the control panel will start and stop motors, energize/deenergize solenoids. The Control Panel will contain programmable logic units.

The Control Panel and operation logic will reflect the ESD mythology created by the Detection & Fire Engineer.

Creation of the Operation Logic in the Programmable Logic Unit will reflect the operation documented by the Final Reports submitted to the AHJ, and each Engineer will verify their intent is reflected in the control logic.

The NEL Operation Protocol will be imbedded in the Operation Control Logic.

The Control Panel will provide alarms when operation parameters are exceeded.

The I&C Engineer will solicit from equipment vendors, NEL, Mechanical Engineer, Electrical Engineer, HazOps Specialist, Detection & Fire Engineer operation conditions which require ALARM, and those conditions requiring a TRIP. Requirement needed to RESET the equipment for restart will be embedded in the Operation Logic.

The Operation & Maintenance Manual will include a narrative on the Control Panel, and Operation Logic.

Create the data logging system for station operation.

Create algorithm to calculate efficiency of equipment and overall performance.

Develop method of remote monitoring Refueling Station.

Identify each instrument or device used to describe the operating or status condition of the NEL equipment

Coordinate with Nikola Team to resolve anomalies in Station Design.
